You're on the right track. It's an averaging system. The reason I shoot it full of holes is because we did research on the MB system purely to provide an example of psychology with individuality. People applying for a wide range of jobs from a very diverse background range tested within a 10% paremeter because they all answered with what they thought an employer would want to hear. We simultaneously tested 400 university students, 3 days apart, with a singular variable - less coffee. Over 80% tested with a different result 3 days apart. So the "science" of a psychic is far more accurate because of the individual aspect. They ask questions about the subject, build a profile and then make assumptions based on the law of averages. Or maybe they see beyond the mortal barrier. That's a question that science will never be able to answer. :)

Absolutely friend. Like I say, just google it and read the reviews from the leading psychologists. You really can answer the same way 3 days apart and encounter a variable because your mood is slightly different. I have known too many practitioners who will experiment without concern to the patient just to get themselves published. Getting published is the doorway to fame and the all-important research grants. INFJ=1956 Holden. :)

28. A good age when all is considered, as it left me scope to work with. Old enough to accept fate and deal with it, young enough to use the experience.

No point telling me to go to hell - I've already been there for years. It turned me into more of a zen Buddhist than anything. Fate, karma, this being our hell in preparation for heaven, all makes way too much sense. A journey I never regretted.

I was dead long enough that I ceased to exist. The front of my skull was reconstructed in an operation that took the 2 best oral maxillo facial reconstruction surgeons in Australia at the time 5 1/2 hours with a full theatre. The operation was recorded and became the primary training tool for oral maxillo facial reconstruction worldwide. I have chatted with people who were saved by that operation.
Side-effects:
1: Insidiously high IQ. It catapulted 10 points higher than Einstein's when I woke up 28 hours post-op, around 26 hours post-mortem and revival.
2: Insomnia. Initially I didn't sleep for 6 1/2 months. I haven't slept much since.
3: Pain. I mean skull feels like it doesn't fit in my head pain. Thermal overloading from the brain's activity level combined with 5 titanium plates, 25 surgical stainless screws and a wire kind of pain. I hope you never know it.
4: Chronic sinusitis. My nasal cavities are now miss-aligned due to the skull going back together not quite how it was before.

Bottom line: While in hospital I met a girl who didn't live long enough to see her high school dance or her 15th birthday and I had no idea what to say to her. So I studied psychology, psychiatry, clinical psychology and was lucky enough to find a master looking for a protege. Truth is I still wouldn't know what to say to that girl, but the destination was never important. That journey taught me what humility and enlightenment are.

No problem about time. It's an artificial constraint after all. Give them a safe memory. Take them to a calming place, help them relax and feel at ease. The coaching for that is complicated and takes time but wing it. As the system could be used against a person I wouldn't publicly post it, but you can message me for more in-depth instructions. Always make absolutely certain that the memory is fixed to a place not a person. That is vital.

The blackouts are quite common. During an anxiety attack the metabolic rate increases drastically. If a panic attack then occurs they will black out completely. They need a memory from their past where there was no fear or anxiety. Make that the safe zone. At the onset of an attack their stomach feels strange, they experience accelerated heart rate and a shortness of breath. They need to identify the pre-cursory signs which can be as subtle as reduced vision, sit down, close their eyes and go to the safe place. They need the memory to be so sharp that they can smell, feel and hear the memory.

Not particularly romantic, but we're talking about the science of the brain. It's like playing darts blindfolded a lot of the time, but I cannot think of anything in my life that was more rewarding. Stubs, most effects of strokes are irreversible as you no doubt know by now, so power to you friend.

A foetus can absorb input in-utero as it is developing, but it is free of the constraints of emotion as that requires the development of a personality complex. Regardless of the intention of MB as a platform, platform for individuals is an oxymoron. As far as I'm concerned INFJ means you're in an old Holden car.

Every person is an individual, as is every personality profile. If the MB had any value we could easily identify every serial killer in history by just looking for people who had matching personality strings with Ted Bundy. I spent years specialising in adults who were sexually abused as children. I could break down percentages of personality shifts and outcomes based purely on the age of the first instance and I would never have helped a single person. When a woman tells me she has been depressed as long as she can remember and thinks she was born depressed I clarify that we are born without motion firstly. Then I ask how far back she can remember. Depression is a tendril of anxiety so I need an idea of the age bracket and the trigger event. If think any person can ever put that into a basic platform name them. This is an extremely exacting science based purely on instinct. No mathematical formula or sequence can be applied to an individual, as any outcome is based on the random sequence of events and reactions. If you are sceptical about real clinical psychology you should study the impressions of the system through the eyes of the industry. Google Meyer-Briggs and see what the professors and practitioners say about it. I'm far from alone in condemning it.

Sorry, but the Meyers Briggs system is nothing but a slap in the face to any psychologist with a functional brain. To attempt to remove individuality from the psychological spectrum is to say that the human race is categorically assembled by a letter or numerical sequence. As a master clinical psychologist I would like to point out that it is the most fundamentally flawed psychology principal ever written and has been proven over and over to be nothing but a mindless rant to get their names published. You are an individual. You have a unique personality profile. Every person has. Reality 101.
